Liang Jian: Peaceful battle, I will bring a group to help the scene

Chapter 193 Yoshino Shinozuka's Wrath and Capture of Mingjia Town!
"It should be about the same."

Luo Youdu nodded and said: "It's just that this is not certain."

"Ok!"

Xu Rui nodded and said: "Then order the first battalion and the second battalion to be vigilant and continue to stick to the positions of Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain.".

"I have told Chen Zhenping and Liu Shuoming."

Luo Youdu said in a concentrated voice.

Xu Rui nodded, and then, together with Luo Youdu, picked up the binoculars and looked outside the city.

At this time, in Taiyuan City, in the headquarters of the Devil's First Army.

Nagata Taro reported the secret telegram of the latest battle situation to Yoshino Shinozuka. At this time, Major Kitamura Junyi, the communication staff officer of the headquarters, took it over and handed it to Yoshino Shinozuka for reading.

"Bang!!!"

Not surprisingly, Yoshinan Shinozuka slammed the telegram on the table in front of the command room of the headquarters after reading the battle situation and losses reported by the secret telegram, and said angrily: "Bageya Road, Nagata Taro just fought After a long time, I killed 5000 people."

"Even if it is [-] pigs, the enemy army can't catch them all for three days and three nights!"

Major General Miyano Michiichi, the Chief of Staff of the Devil's First Army, picked up the secret telegram that Shinozuka Yoshinan had slapped on the table and looked at it, then frowned and said, "Nagata Taro's strategy of dividing the troops is actually not a problem. ".

"It's just that the enemy troops defending Laoyeling and Jiangjunling are not Xu Rui's 303rd Regiment. However, according to the enemy's information reviewed by the headquarters, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army and the Xinyi Regiment of the Eighth Route Army are two enemy troops. , and the fighting power is also very strong.”

After a pause, Miyano Michiichi said something nice to Nagata Taro, saying: "Commander, this is the end of the matter.".

"Nagata Taro still has [-] elite imperial troops in his hands. In terms of military strength, he still occupies it."

"Just use the precious soldiers of the imperial army to storm the enemy's strong defensive positions in Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain. The casualties will indeed be huge. So, should we send gas bombs to Taro Nagata for support?"

Yoshinan Shinozuka propped his hands on the table, staring at the huge military map placed on the table, looking at the map with a serious face, for a full minute, and then said: "In order to wipe out the 1rd regiment of the Jinsui Army, by the way, get rid of the cooperation Xu Rui's 303th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, and the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army."

"I agree to the request to transport the poison gas bombs to Nagata Taro. Miyano-kun, you send someone to order the imperial army gas bombs closest to Jinghai County to be secretly transported to Nagata Taro for use."

In the end, Yoshinan Shinozuka, the old devil, had a serious intention to kill.

"Yes, Commander."

Seeing this, Miyano Michiichi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately waved his hand to signal the devil's confidential staff officer who was waiting for orders to go out immediately and send a report, ordering the devil's army closest to Jinghai County to secretly deploy a batch of poison gas bombs and transport them by truck to The front line was handed over to Nagata Taro, head of the 36th Division, for secret use.

"Send a report to Nagata Taro, the matter of the gas bomb has been resolved for him. Next, I need him to attack cautiously. With the help of the gas bomb, he can effectively capture Jinghai County."

Shinozuka Yoshinan said to the communications staff officer Kitamura Junyi: "The progress of the attack does not need to be rushed."

"But the remaining [-] soldiers of the imperial army cannot lose too much."

Major Kitamura Junyi paused and said: "Yes, Commander." Then he turned and went back to the communication room, ordering the devil's communication soldiers under his command to send an encrypted call back to the 36th Division.

"Commander!"

Seeing this, Major General Miyano Michiichi, chief of staff of the Devil's First Army, said in a condensed voice: "According to this attack progress, I'm afraid we won't be able to take down Jinghai County today."

"It is estimated that it will take at least two or three days. Xu Rui's troops, even under the attack of poison gas bombs, will urgently withdraw from Jinghai County at that time, and the main force will retreat to the north."

Pointing to the map, Shinozuka Yoshinan nodded with a frown and said, "Miyano-kun is right."

"If Xu Rui retreats to the north bank of the Xiushui River Bridge, then Nagata Taro will have someone to fight."

Miyano Michi nodded, and said in a concentrated voice: "We can only provide the support Nagata Taro needs at any time.".

"Unexpectedly, so many imperial troops were concentrated this time. Up to now, more than 5000 troops have been lost. Although only 358 of them were caused by Xu Rui, the other [-] were in the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army. The [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army lost it. But it is undeniable that the combat and defense capabilities of Xu Rui's troops are indeed beyond our expectations."

Shinozuka Yoshino said: "No wonder, all the troops of the 3th Brigade and the 40th Infantry Regiment of the [-]rd Brigade will fall into Xu Rui's hands, and the opponent's combat power is not to be boasted!" .

"Then now, we can only see if Nagata Taro can recapture Jinghai County as soon as possible after the gas bombs are delivered to Nagata Taro."

Miyano Michiichi looked at the map and said in a concentrated voice.

"I hope Nagata Taro will give me some strength!"

Shinozuka Yoshinan said with a gloomy expression.

Miyano Michiichi remained silent. It's really hard to say what the next attack will be, and no one can say it clearly.

Four or five minutes later, far outside the south gate of Jinghai County, in the field division headquarters of the 5th Division.

"Huhuhu!!!"

After several deep breaths, Nagata Taro finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"The commander called back to reprimand my command, but at least gas support was called for us."

Nagata Taro said after handing the return telegram from the Devil's First Army Headquarters to Major General Taketo Kensaburo, Chief of Staff.

"The poison gas bomb has been approved by His Excellency the Commander."

The chief of staff of the division, Kenzaburo Taketo, said: "Then we can only continue to harass and attack the enemy positions on Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain outside Jinghai County.".

"Jiangjun Ridge and Laoye Ridge in the direction of the left and right wings must be stabilized!"

Nagata Taro nodded and said: "Then follow this plan and execute it temporarily!".

"We wait for the arrival of the gas bombs before launching a strong attack on the enemy's positions in Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain outside Jinghai County."

Taketo Kensaburo nodded and said: "Understood, head of the division, I will arrange it.".

"Ah."

Nagata Taro nodded, and Taketo Kenzaburo immediately sent someone to convey Nagata Taro's latest order.

Subsequently, part of the devils of the 36th Division continued to attack the defensive positions on Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain under the cover of artillery fire.

It's just that this move was already within Xu Rui's expectation.

And this time, almost at the same time.

The Second Battalion, the Third Battalion and two Battalions of the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army departing from Laoyeling actually had more than 2000 horses. Under the command of Li Yunlong, they took a small road in the mountains and forests and took a long detour to attack Mingjia Town.

Since the detour was about two hours, it was not until 39:[-] in the afternoon.

Li Yunlong was commanding the second and third battalions of his new first regiment, and quietly rushed to Mingjia Town, about 25 kilometers southeast of Jinghai County.

The devils in this small town, after the Devils 36th Division and the 41st Infantry Regiment met and went north, the devils who stayed here had less than a squadron of troops.

"Head, I caught a devil's tongue and asked. There are only 186 devils in Mingjia Town, two 7-type heavy machine guns and five light machine guns, and only seven grenade launchers! It's a Type [-] rifle."

After rushing to the north of Mingjia Town, the scouts sent by Li Yunlong quickly returned to Li Yunlong quietly and reported in a low voice.

"Xu Rui's information is indeed correct."

Li Yunlong chuckled, and then whispered to the second battalion commander Shen Quan and the third battalion commander Wang Huaibao: "The second battalion attacked from the north entrance of Mingjia Town, and the third battalion attacked from the south entrance of Mingjia Town.".

"Attack between the north and the south, and eliminate the devils in the town within 10 minutes. The scouts cut off the phone line from the town to the devils outside the Jinghai County for me. Nagata Taro, the old devil, suspects that something is wrong in the rear."

Shen Quan, commander of the second battalion of the new first regiment, and Wang Huaibao, commander of the third battalion, whispered in unison: "Yes, regimental commander."

Soon, the attack deployment was completed.

Li Yunlong commanded the Second Battalion and the Third Battalion of the Headquarters, and with lightning speed, after temporarily cutting off the external telephone line of Mingjia Town, within 10 minutes, he eliminated the devil squadron who stayed in Mingjia Town.

With more than 2000 horses, they quickly attacked Mingjia Town, and all 186 devils in the town were quickly wiped out by the troops commanded by Li Yunlong.
